“Taste is the new skill” - AI art as an accessibility tool... Most criticism of AI art is being short sighted. The technology exists, and it will have an undeniable impact, both positive and negative, based on how it is used. "AI is transformative in the same way that cavemen discovering fire was transformative. Fire isn’t good or bad. It just is. It’s a homo-sapiens-sapiens moment for our species, and for better and worse, we can’t go back to the darkness." (Claire Silver) Half the time photos are so photoshopped you don't recognise the original anymore. But the maker don't tell you that, at least I do tell you it is AI...

My favourite Fan Ho work is his, yet limited, colour photography! I know he wasn't much of a fan (no pun intended!) of colour film, but his chromatic exposures were extremely rich with an array of tints and reserved saturation. Amazing stuff!

I turned off the sound. For me, the music is distracting in this video. The images are outstanding. Tx

Your lava lamp need it's own show!

I appreciate the video very much, and I like the framing of the imagery. The generated art is a bit out of place though - perhaps something typographic, but I suppose 'we do not have to constantly be entertained' beyond your own delivery - your words are evocative enough

Great video, thanks!

Actually, according to his son who was there, he could find the light meter in the car in the rush. Instead, he mentally calculated the exposure in lumens.

Your videos are well done. However I've noticed there's nothing about Daido Moriyama or any other influential Japanese photographers ( Fukase, Araki etc). What gives?!

Dogs are great but cats rule. Erwitt had dogs but Fukase had Sasuke.

Great video. Terrific photography

Nice work

That picture is dark as fuck

The jazz flower district NYC coffee table book is 50 of his photos the book was published a young photographer who fell in love Eugene's Pittsburgh when Eugene died ansel Adams.said get a 18-wheeler to NYC all those photos and tapes were sent to the University of Arizona there is still still cataloging his audio tapes.ps thanks for putting a wonderful jazz track underneath your presentation

👍🇨🇴

Little wonder it is famous. Printed in Life alone and quiet unique. If one believes it is genuine it has more impact and at the time Life was very credible and trusted unlike the media of today. It is a case of who knows? Thanks and Cheers

took me a couple of years to understand what he did to photography, now i adore his work. he developed visual codes for pictures, and you see people everywhere using them, even without knowing his work.

Quality photographer and this is a quality video. Ty

Ansel Adams achieved great success in his lifetime. He was the first mass-marketed fine art photographer in the world.

Thank you for the video

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Great, words Truth ❤

If you live in the UK, come down to the largest Saul Leiter exhibition we've ever had. It's showing now at MK Gallery in Milton Keynes, just a 30 minute train ride from London!

You have a wonderful way to tell a story about the people I admire. Thank you

This is a very well done and touching tribute. However, recent research has unveiled much new evidence that changes the story. As for the Falling soldier, it becomes far less impressive when you see the second photo Capa took of a second soldier posed in the same 'death fall' at the exact same place and taken just moments apart. (The first corpse had gotten up and walked away.) Vue magazine printed both photos, from which intelligent readers could realize the story should not be taken at face value. Unfortunately, when the story was later printed in the US, the duplicate photo was quietly omitted, and the deception was cemented in the public's mind. Ten years ago the point where those photos were taken was geolocated. It was far behind the lines at the time the photos were taken. There was no combat in that area for more than a month afterwards. The photos on those rolls of film were simply staged fakes for propaganda. Capa was 22 when he sold those fakes, very early in his career. Eleven years later he gave an interview in which he invented new and even more outlandish details about the event that never was. It would be wise to be more cautious when considering the claims he made about other photos in the intervening years. Capa was not the first photographer to land on Omaha Beach on D-Day. That honor goes to SGT Taylor and another man of the 165th Signal Photo company. Life's editors made up that fiction for the 19 June 1944, a bit of marketing hype, nothing more. His D+3 interview with Charles Wertenbaker made no such claim. Capa only adopted the first wave myth after the 19 June issue came out and the public believed the nonsense Life invented. Capa actually landed back in Wave 13, and despite his gory description, he landed at a point in time where German fire was the lightest. Everyone in his wave reached the shelter of the shingle bank safely. He got no farther than the tank seen to left of his photos; he quickly left the beach and was on another landing craft within 15 minutes. Life only printed 5 of his 10 beach photos in the 19 June issue. The other five they printed were taken after he left the beach, and with a different camera using 120 film. The four 35mm rolls of film he shot included three that were exposed aboard his attack transport before D-Day. He only shot part of one roll of 35mm film on D-Day. His first shot from the bow of the landing craft was exposure 29 out of a roll of 36 (he actually squeezed two more shots out of that roll). None of the film was lost by an accident in the lab. Tests have shown that the film could not be ruined in the manner claimed, and even the man who told that story for 70 years (John Morris, the head of the Life picture office in London, and the guy who owned the lab) finally had to admit the lab accident story could not be true, and ended up saying that apparently Capa only took those few photos on the beach. By the way, everyone calls them the Magnificent 11, but there has never been any proof there was more than 10. Those 10 are not the only film he shot that day. He exposed five rolls of 120 from the time he stepped back aboard a landing craft till the end of the day, and about half of those can still be found in the archives. There's so much more, but there isn't space here. Unfortunately, the mythology surrounding this has become so pervasive that it's taken on a life of its own. Your video was very well produced, and I regret that so much of it has been undermined by subsequent disclosures.

Psh want to talk to a real hero? Hop aboard my $##%. I’m a war hero with a compelling, heartbreaking story. U can learn a thing or two from me.

nailed it

A suggestion: instead of showing only each picture as a whole, which makes it appear very small on a phone screen, couldn't you also show one or two important detail views of each picture? This would make it easier for the viewer of the video to appreciate, for example, the facial expressions of the subjects of a photograph. Thanks!

I love the editing in all of your videos. Great work!

The editing and the selection of b-roll for this video is excellent! Thanks!

❤

Why the music? The piano re re repeat is so annoying it ruins your report. Really it is horrible....

I hope you're telling the truth, because this is an amazing little fact.

Fascinating video. Why did you tape over the Nikon and the lens? I mean no one is going to confuse that with a Minolta now are they?

Martin Parr is the man 🙏

beautiful profile! Intimately pursued!!!

Superb. Ĝreat reportage

I didn't understand shit

Didnt get where the Revenge is

Please have a teardown of the Huawei watch GT3 pro titanium and check the titanium they used. I hope this makes to your videos. Thank you. :)

great video man. just some advice to improve moving forward, turn down the volume a bit and speak more clearly. very educational and helpful!

Brilliant

Ignore this mf @NinjaSushi2 this is a good video man keep it up

Really a sad tale! Gene Smith simply went overboard in his work! Years on a week assignment Pittsburg. Minamata magnificently recorded, but impossible to watch. There is a movie about him! I quit after 15 mins!

That's not how you do a loop either

I can barely hear you...
